Entrance 130  Angels we have heard on High

sheet music: http://christmascarolmusic.org/SATB/AngelsWeHaveHeard.html

Angels we have heard on high

Sweetly singing o'er the plains,

And the mountains in reply

Echoing their joyous strains.

Refrain:

Gloria, in excelsis Deo!

Gloria, in excelsis Deo!

Shepherds, why this jubilee?

Why your joyous strains prolong?

What the gladsome tidings be

Which inspire your heavenly song?

Come to Bethlehem and see

Christ Whose birth the angels sing;

Come, adore on bended knee,

Christ the Lord, the newborn King.

See Him in a manger laid,

Whom the choirs of angels praise;

Mary, Joseph, lend your aid,

While our hearts in love we raise.

Offertory  631 Bread of Life
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7CRUSaDr1U

Refrain:
Bread of Life, Truth Eternal,
Broken now to set us free,
The risen Christ, his saving power,
is here in bread and wine for me.

Lord, I know I am not worthy to receive you.
You speak the words and I am healed.
Here at your table, love’s mystery,
One bread, one cup, one family, (Refrain)

Lord, by your cross you reconciled us to the Father.
We have only to believe.
Your sacrifice, our victory
Now by your blood we are redeemed. (Refrain)

Lord, you gave your people Manna in the desert.
Still you fulfil our every need.
Lord, when we hunger, Lord, when we thirst,
We come to you and we receive. (Refrain)

Holy, holy, holy Lord,

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna in the highest, hosanna in the highest

145  What child is this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oz44GJlSPeo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8T6isuiF-x0


What Child is this who, laid to rest 
On Mary’s lap is sleeping? 
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, 
While shepherds watch are keeping? 
This, this is Christ the King, 
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing; 
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud, 
The Babe, the Son of Mary.


Why lies He in such mean estate, 
Where ox and ass are feeding? 
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here 
The silent Word is pleading. 
Nails, spear shall pierce Him through, 
The cross be borne for me, for you; 
Hail, hail the Word made flesh, 
The Babe, the Son of Mary.  


So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh, 
Come peasant, king to own Him; 
The King of kings salvation brings, 
Let loving hearts enthrone Him. 
Raise, raise a song on high, 
The virgin sings her lullaby; 
Joy, joy for Christ is born, 
The Babe, the Son of Mary.


979 Oh the Word of my Lord,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uClEGv19Tyg

Chorus
Oh the Word of my Lord,
Deep within my being.
Oh The Word of my Lord,
You have filled my mind.

Before I formed you in the womb,
I knew you through and through
I chose you to be mine
Before you left your mother’s side
I called to you, my child,
To be my sign.

I know that you are very young,
But I will make you strong
-I’ll fill you with my word,
and you will travel through the land
Fulfilling my command
Which you have heard.

And ev’rywhere you are to go,
My hand will follow you
You will not be alone.
In all the danger that you fear
You’ll find me very near,
Your words my own

With all my strength you will be filled
You will destroy and build,
For that is my design
You will create and overthrow,
Reap harvests I will sow –
Your word is mine.

Final 922  Bind us together

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqtqIUyXoFc
(refrain)

Bind Us Together, Lord

bind us together, 
with cords that cannot be broken.

Bind us together, Lord,

bind us together, Lord,

bind us together with love.

There is only one God,

there is only one King

there is only one Body

that is why we sing: (refrain)

Made for the glory of God,

purchased by his precious Son,

born with the right to be clean,

for Jesus the victory has won. (refrain)

You are the family of God,

you are the promise divine,

you are God's chosen desire,

you are the glorious new wine. (refrain)
